Our other areas of expertise
Telecoms
Telecom cable installation projects typically involve the deployment of fibre-optic cables to support telecommunications infrastructure.
A significant portion of these projects entails subsea installation, placing cables on or beneath the ocean floor. This process requires the use of specialized marine vessels and advanced engineering techniques to ensure precision and durability in challenging underwater environments.
Our dedicated team connects fibre optic jointers, engineers, technicians, and a wide range of other cable laying professionals with opportunities that align with their schedules, experience, and career goals. With a global reach and a strong reputation for quality, we’re here to support your next career move.
Wind
Wind turbine cable laying projects involve the installation of electrical cables that connect wind turbines to each other and to the central power grid. These cables are essential for transmitting the electricity generated by the turbines to where it’s needed.
In offshore wind farms, the process typically includes laying subsea cables. Inter-array cables connect individual turbines within the wind farm, while export cables deliver the generated power back to shore. This operation requires highly specialized vessels, meticulous route planning, and thorough seabed preparation to ensure long-term performance and to minimize environmental disruption.
